I doubt that anyone truly knows the answer down to the exact year, but the 417-8H is part of the high powered "H" series that seems to have been released in the very early 1970's.
The original "H" & "H II" series both co-existed with the 417-8C & 417-8D ( according to the catalogs found on this site ) .
The differences are in the coil-formers ( bobbin ) and the voice-coil wire types .
Coil & Former material differences will certainly effect the "sound" and power handling that one will get from these 12" speakers ( especially when run under stress & duress ) .
Thanks a lot !
